Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information
The substance is neither inherently nor readily biodegradable.
Additional information
Screening studies are available for both ready and inherent biodegradability (BASF AG, 1990; MITI, 2013). The rates of degradation in both tests were found to be low and the substance is considered to be neither readily nor inherently biodegradable. These results are supported by different QSAR models (BIOWIN v4.10 of EPI Suite v4.10 and OECD 301C v09.13 of OASIS Catalogic v5.11.19).
As the substance has been found to be neither readily nor inherently biodegradable in OECD guideline tests, no significant degradation is expected in the environment. This is supported by the chemical structure of the substance, which indicates a low potential for biodegradation. Hence, no further biodegradation testing has been conducted as it is not expected to provide any additional information which will significantly alter the assessment.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
